Can you tell me what my S-Works should weigh?

not sure about the rs1, it is heavier apparently. If you want a lighter fork, get a fox 32 float ctd kashima, mine is 1470g or so

I don't think many XC racers would take a heavier, torsionally flexy fork with a (heavier) odd size front hub over the SID :) EDIT: I'm talking about the RS-1 not Fox!

My SID is 1548g with a custom (lighter) damper and ShiftUp bolt thru axle... if the Fox is 1470g with axle then that is a really decent weight! Would be a nice saving over a stock SID too, even WC I'd have thought.

Congrats on being National Champ too!

Oh okay damn that's awkward.. Lol and it's expensive as hell!!

And awesome if it's lighter!! And thanks @DanW!

I have another question as I am not really enlightened about it.. Would tubular tires work on my tubeless rims?
